Setting up privacy masking
You can define an area on screen to remain hidden from view. For example, you can
choose to block the view of a camera when overlooking residential premises. This
hidden area is referred to as privacy masking. Privacy masking cannot be viewed in live
view or recorded mode, and appears as a black area on the video image.
To setup a privacy mask:
1. From the menu toolbar, click
Camera Management
>
Privacy Mask
